Yup im the noo speshilest 🤣 The floating caravan has twin v8 5L beasts, the new engine wont run properly & a few peeps
have been trying to get it running properly. I checked the timing with ye auld timing light which turned out to be spot on.
Replaced the oily plugs, then lost an eye broo cause it spat a 2 foot flame out the carb 🤣🤣 I then robbed the old carb &
stuck it on the noo engine, guess wot it...... runs like a wee sweety. I will rebuild the new carb with noo kit ive got a funny
feeling its jetted wrong. I didnt have time to do it today this was the office..........

I didnt feel confident taking it out as nowt works in it, the gears are back to front (forward gear goes reverse) ??? wtf
That was a long day although seen some dolphins an a seal.

... that I was invaded by family and dinnertime got messed about.
Everyone got fed, but I had to do all the cooking (BBQ), wasn't expecting that at all.
It put me in a ratty mood a bit, but no harm done.
I like to be the host when I do the inviting. When people invite themselves and then expect me to run around doing all the work I get the hump.

On the plus side for today.
So, today was...
80 x 10 x 3
90 x 10 x 1
60 x 10 x 1

:D

Oh you'd love it!!!!!!!!!
You'd end up like me with a rep for stirring it. I've just been called a "Trouble maker" and a "clock" as I am a wind-up merchant!!
Can't stand smug barstaff who think they know it all and dictate, patronise etc all the time. So I just have to prick their bubbles and front them up!/Call them out, whatever! ;)

We just ensure everything is freezable. This sort of happened with our Norman friends. We didn't realise quite how much they were going to be eating with friends. W had done menus and stuff for each meal, writ down in a book! So I just had to look the stuff out and get on wiv it. So a few meals were skipped and the stuff has either been eaten or is still in the freezer.

We once were having a dinner party, six of us, W, me and two other couples. Full "mise en place" three courses and cheese. At least 3 different wines etc etc. Table all set, food cooked no one appeared. After half an hour I rung them up, "oh" , sez one, "X (other pair's husband who works with him) told us it was off!" "Well we bliddy didn't! Can't you still come? " "er no we are just sitting down to our dins".:mad::mad::mad:

Rang tother couple up, no answer!

So rang two other couples, one of whom had already eaten their dins but they came round and we all made merry! 🤣🤣🤣Tothers never got invited again!
